Our sensational comeback against Crvena Zvezda secured our place in the group stage of the Europa League, where we now know all eight of our opponents. The exact dates and kick-off times for each match have now also been confirmed. When will our European campaign kick off?

Our first match in the group stage of the Europa League is on Thursday 17 September, when we’ll be hosting Belgian side Union SG at the Doosan Arena. We’ll be heading out on our first European away trip just under a month later. On Thursday 15 October, we’ll be travelling to Budapest, where we’ll face our old rivals Ferencváros once again.

“We’ll be informing fans about ticket sales at the start of next week,” says club spokesperson Václav Hanzlík.
